It’s crazy when you have an injury, but you don’t know how you did it, what caused it, and how to fix it. Now I know some of you reading this would say how is this possible? Well welcome to my world. I have had radiation and pain shooting down my leg for over 2 weeks now and I do not have a pinched nerve or bulging disk to justify the pain. I’m just a human puzzle trying to be put back together. I have been going to my Chiropractor Dr. Jonathan Haigh http://www.back2healthinc.com/ he has gotten me back to a functional position with minimized pain and we are now working on getting back to being able to train hopefully this wont take too much longer.
As an athlete we deal with sacrifice as I stated in my last post the other thing that we deal with is injuries. Now I have been “on the shelf” since last indoor season trying to get things back in order. Things have been going great until today. I have been running and jumping well and 2 days ago I ran some of the fastest times I’ve every run in a 30m. I cooled down and everything was fine until I got out of my car. When I got out of my car my whole right leg went numb and I didn’t know what to think. I thought I was just sitting in my car funny, but that wasn’t the case. I jumped in the whirlpool and tried to heat and ice my back and the pain got worse. I tried to go to work the next day only to be forced to take a half day. The pain was too much, I was thinking the worse like I pinched nerve or a bulging disk, but neither were the case. I have lived most of my life as an athlete and I have never been able to figure out the ”complex” injuries hopefully we will figure this out soon.
